Luna’s Second Chance Chapter 22~Defending Rights~
~Aria~I stormed out of my room. I couldn't stay here, it felt too suffocating. I didn’t care where I was going. I just needed to be anywhere but inside that suffocating chamber, anywhere but standing under the weight of their eyes, his eyes, pretending that I hadn’t just been discarded like I was nothing.The halls were endless. The stares unbearable.They whispered when I passed."She thought she could be our Luna?""Rejected. Just like that.""Pathetic."The words stung me deep. I couldn't bear to hear more of it.So I walked faster until I was outside the quarters. I had to get out. Had to.The air inside was too thick, pressing down, choking me, clinging to my skin like fucking static and I couldn’t—couldn’t— breathe. My hands were shaking, useless, my heartbeat slamming against my ribs, my throat, my skull, too loud, too fast, like it was trying to crawl out of me.I shoved through the doors, didn’t even feel my feet hit the ground, just moved. Stumbled, almost tripped, didn’

LucaThe old leather-bound book sat open in front of me, but I hadn’t read a single damn word.Tried.Tried to focus.Tried to bury myself in work, in duty, in the history of this damn pack, in anything but her.Didn’t work.Her face wouldn’t leave my mind.The way she had looked at me when I said the words I never should’ve said.The way she had walked away like I hadn’t just shattered both of us.I exhaled, rubbing my face, trying to shove her out of my head.This was for the best. It had to be.Just then I heard a sharp knock on the door.Too sharp. Too loud. Too now.Before I could even tell whoever it was to fuck off, Elijah stepped inside.Didn’t say anything at first. Just stood there.Bad sign.I slammed the book shut. “What.”He hesitated.Worse sign.Then—“It’s Aria.”The room froze.My breath. My pulse. My fucking bones.Elijah exhaled, rubbing a hand over his face. “She got herself into trouble.”I was already standing. “Where.”“She’s fine—”“Where. The fuck. Is she.”“W

~Luca~I stood there, pacing, burning, breath coming too fast, too sharp. I won't let a man harm my mate and go scot free. Never! Elijah’s voice cut through the roaring in my head.“He’s in the chamber.”I stopped and turned to him. Elijah looked at me, something heavy in his eyes. Something that almost looked like regret.I didn’t care. Didn’t answer him.Didn’t even breathe before I moved.I stormed past him, down the halls, past the guards, past the open stares of those who didn’t dare speak—My feet barely fucking touched the ground.The doors to the chamber were already open for me.And there he was. That piece of shit.On his knees.He was tied up. The second his eyes landed on me, he broke.“P—please,” he gasped, voice already thick with terror, with desperation. “Alpha—please, I— I didn’t mean— I wasn’t thinking— I was drunk, I—”I didn’t stop walking.“Please! I was angry, I— I lost control, I swear— I would never— please—”I stopped right in front of him.Looked down a

Chapter 25AriaI stormed into my room and sat by the window. I couldn't stay here anymore. There's nothing left for me here. If Luca wants me so close so bad, then he should come with me. I can't stay here. Just then, Luca walked into my room. Speak of the devil. “You can go.” he said, his voice calm. “I know.” I answered sharply. I had already made up my mind I was going whether he agreed or not. “But Elijah’s going with you.” his next words stunned me a bit. Elijah? But to think more of it, it made sense. He seemed strong enough to protect me against other packs Alpha’s.“I don’t need a babysitter.” but I still shot back.“You need a goddamn army,” I bit out. “But you’re too fucking stubborn to admit it.”“Elijah will make sure you’re safe. He’ll take you wherever the hell you want to go, keep his damn distance if that’s what you want. But he stays.” he said. “Fine.” I agreed. “I’ll come for you when I’m done here.” he said. I remained still, but the way he said that, lik

Luca’s POVThe office was quiet. Too fucking quiet.It had been a day. A fucking day.Aria was gone. I let her go.The right choice. The rational choice. The fucking logical choice.Then why the fuck did it feel like my chest was being hollowed out with a dull knife? She wanted to go, didn’t she?Or did she want me to stop her?I exhaled hard, rubbing my face, trying to drown out the noise, the regret, the fucking ache that had been clawing at me since the second she walked away. Since I let her.A knock. Sharp. Clipped.Didn’t answer. Didn’t fucking care.The door swung open anyway.Elena.Her eyes found mine like she already knew. Like she had been waiting for this.I stiffened, forcing the mask back on. Shoving all the fucking wreckage deep, deep, deeper.“What do you want?” I muttered, reaching for the half-empty bottle of whiskey on my desk.She stepped inside, shut the door behind her. Crossed her arms. That sharp, knowing fucking look in her eyes.“You look like shit.”I snorte

Aria’s POV I thought coming back to the human world would help.That being back in my own bed, in my mother’s home, surrounded by normalcy, would make everything feel… lighter.That maybe—just maybe—the weight of him would fade.But it didn’t. Far from it. It clung to me like a second skin.Not physically, but in my head, in my bones, in my goddamn soul.The rejection was supposed to set me free.It didn’t.It just left a wound that wouldn’t close.A slow, rotting ache in my chest that I couldn’t shake, no matter how much I tried to drown it out with distractions, with sleep, with pretending.And the worst part?I couldn’t stop wondering.What if?What if things had been different?What if he had fought for me?What if I had stayed?What if I had never met him at all?Would I be happier? Would I still feel this raw, broken, hollow?The thoughts were relentless, circling, suffocating.I hadn’t even been back for long, and already my mother was worried.Jasmine too."You’re miserable

Aria’s POVI stood, forcing my limbs to move. “Thanks for tonight, Cole.”He just sighed. “Anytime.” I could see the disappointment on his face. Elijah was already moving.Already leading me away. And I followed carefully behind him till we reached the car.I waited till we entered the car, and then I snapped.“What the fuck was that, Elijah?” Elijah didn’t even look at me. He just turned the key, started the car, and pulled away from the curb like he hadn’t just dragged me away from my fucking date.Like he hadn’t just walked in, sat down, and ripped me out of that restaurant like I was a fucking child.Like I didn’t have a say.Like I didn’t fucking matter.“Elijah,” I snarled, voice sharp and shaking. “What the fuck was that?”Still, nothing.“You think you can just come in and do whatever the hell you want? You think you can just—just fucking control me?”Silence. “Elijah!” I exploded, slamming my palm against the dashboard. “I am not his anymore! Do you understand that? I’m

Aria’s POVThere was nothing better for me right now, than a clear mind running a few shifts at mom's restaurant. I stepped into the restaurant for the first time in months and then that familiar scent hit me. The fresh and warm scent of Mom's famous spaghetti source and her freshly baked bread. Except it didn’t feel like home.Not anymore.It had changed. Modernized. New furniture, new workers, a fresh coat of paint used on the walls.I was happy for mom, but deep down, it ached my heart to know it was from money Luca paid me off with. I barely made it two steps inside before my mom turned, froze, her hand gripping the counter like she needed it to steady herself."Aria," she breathed. Then she moved. Fast. Pulled me into her arms like she was afraid I’d disappear again.I stood there, stiff for a second. Then I sank into her warmth. When she pulled back, her hands cupped my face, searching me."I'm sorry, I'm just still missing you alot, you know?" It came out like a question.

Aria’s POVIt was almost midnight when I finally reached our apartment. I dragged myself to my room like a corpse, feet heavy, mind a twisted mess. Everything felt wrong. I slammed the door shut behind me. I was a white wolf.A fucking white wolf. This wasn’t supposed to happen. This wasn’t my life. I was human—no, worse—I was a rejected mate, tossed aside like I was nothing. But now, I wasn’t nothing.I was something.Something that could rip a rogue to shreds.I couldn’t stop seeing it.The rogue.His eyes had widened. His whole body had gone rigid, his mouth parting like he couldn’t even process what was in front of him. His stance had changed—hesitation.Fear.He had seen a white wolf standing where a pathetic, fragile human had been.And in that split second—he knew he was going to die.A shudder rolled through me.And he had.I had killed him.I should have felt something.Guilt. Horror.But all I had felt was power.That scared me more than anything.I curled my knees to m

Aria POVI woke up to an intense pain. Everywhere. It felt like my brain wanted to bulge out of my own head.I cracked my eyes open. My room. My bed. Safe. But I didn’t feel safe.I felt wrong.Like my skin wasn’t mine. I forced myself up from my bed, exhaling sharply. What the hell happened?And then it hit me.Memories rushed in—fast, violent, suffocating.The club. The drinks. Jasmine laughing. The air too thick, the music too loud, the world spinning.Then the cold night air. The sidewalk. Stumbling. The ground unsteady beneath me.And then—him.The rogue. The glowing red eyes. The stench of blood. The way he moved—fast, predatory, like I was prey.I had tried to run. Useless. Weak. Slow.He had pinned me down, claws slicing into my skin.I should have died.I would have died.But I screamed. And something inside me answered.A burst of light, white-hot and blinding. An explosion that sent him flying.And then—the shift.I gasped, gripping my arms, my whole body shaking.I ha

Elijah’s POVI sat in the dim hotel room, staring at the chipped coffee cup in my hands. The coffee was cold. Had been for hours. But I wasn’t drinking it. Just gripping it like it had answers.Waiting.For her.For Aria.And that was the problem.She wasn’t back.She should’ve been back.Where the fuck was she?Then came the knock.Too hard. Too fast. Urgent.I was already moving before I even thought about it, the chair scraping against the floor, my body coiled tight like a goddamn wire about to snap.The soldier outside the door looked like he had been running.“She’s been gone too long.”My chest went tight.“How long?” My voice was flat. Cold.“Hours.” A sharp inhale. “She hasn’t returned.”My fingers curled into fists.Fuck.I grabbed my coat, shoved past him. The drive to her house was a blur. The moment I got there, I knew.The door was unlocked.Bad. Bad fucking sign.I stepped in, ears sharp, eyes scanning.Her scent was here. Fresh. But fading fast.My stomach knotted.I
Luna’s Second Chance Chapter 30~Drown it out~
One hour was enough for me to get a quick shower and freshen up a little. But, I still couldn't shake off the vision. Talking with the white wolf. And then it says I'm a white wolf too.‘You are a White Wolf, Aria.And whether you accept it or not—your destiny is already in motion.’ The words were still fresh in my mind. It was all too overwhelming for me… But, for now all that has to wait. I had to see Jasmine. And try to explain and make sense of what happened. I grabbed my jacket and pushed the door open. But, moment I stepped outside, I knew.Something was watching me. I just had that tingle. It wasn’t just paranoia. It was something thick and heavy in the air, curling around me like a warning.I ignored it.“Taxi!!” I yelled standing on the sidewalk. The can drove to me and I slid into the backseat, rattled off the address Jasmine sent me, and tried to shake the feeling.Didn’t work.The entire ride, I felt it. A weight pressing into my back. Every streetlight we passed
